You might ask why Ben is holding an ice pack to his tongue. Let me tell you why. It’s Sunday morning and inevitably somebody needed something ironed. I set up the ironing board and iron in the living room and was doing a few touch ups. I walked away for a minute and heard a scream. I turned around to find Ben yelling and dancing around. He quickly explained that he LICKED THE IRON and now his tongue hurt. As I was laughing (because…he LICKED AN IRON), I suggested an ice pack might help.
We still aren’t sure why he decided licking the iron was something he wanted to try, but it seems like a very typical Ben thing to do.
